I hate to say it, but these are hardly "sales." Roughly $100 per 1TB internal is pretty much the standard price these days, occasionally dropping to $90 per 1TB during real sales.

No deal at all. Can be had cheaper elsewhere, and was going for around $140 Black Friday time. $170 shipped from Techforless, $180 Buy.com, etc. Too bad I didn't buy it when it was $140 :(

Have paid less for caviar blacks in the past. They work nice in my NAS.

You can get a better deal at Fry's Electronics just about any day of the week.

You can find 5400 1.5TB Hard Drives for about 90 bucks nowadays. 7200 are a little rarer at 1.5TB at 90 bucks, but I've spotted a few deals.

The notebook hardrive (Western Digital WD6400BEVT) looks like a good deal! I want 7200rpm though :(

Not every "sale" is a good deal, and this supposed deal is perfect proof of this.

NewEgg rarely actually has deals. all their pricing is market standard and they just throw up a new sales campaign every possible opportunity, throw a bunch of random items in it, and call it a MASSIVE SAVINGS

i hate newegg

$180 for a 2 TB certainly seems like a standard price, which isn't necessarily a bad thing of course. If they threw in an external HD enclosure that may make it an exceptional deal.

There is one drive on Newegg with a good price, external Samsung 1.5 TB for $120 with code: EMCMNNT32 or $130 without. (Best reviews too)

Cheapest 1.5 TB external on ZipZoomFly is $137 and $150 on TigerDirect. Fry's has one for $110, although it's sold out.

No need to hate on Newegg just because you think they don't have the best prices. Their user review system, customer service, and shipping times are great, and nowhere is better to figure out how to build your own computer.

It's true most of the items in their weekly promotions aren't "sales", but the featured items with big pictures and sometimes Shell Shockers are great deals.

For hard drives, I wouldn't recommend getting the cheapest you can find. Instead, head over to Newegg and check user reviews for info on reliability and failure rate. (You can approximate % of 1-egg reviews as fail rate lol)

Yes, Newegg deals come and go, and a lot are pretty much non-deals. This looks like one of those, but if you're looking for a specific thing and you happen to find what you need at a good price, then I guess that's a deal.

Regarding the poster who wanted a 7200RPM drive for a notebook, it's true it can give you an improvement in performance, depending on what sort of task you will be doing. But also, keep in mind they will draw more power, generate more heat, and probably be noisier. A lot of other improvements that have gone on in recent years have made drive RPM less important as a major contributor to performance.

Newegg can have GREAT deals, you just have to watch out for them. In the week of Black Friday I bought 2 WD 2TB each for $130 each including shipping. That is $65 a TB including shipping. And as someone else noted, their daily specials can be pretty good.

Fry's had a 1TB iomega for $59.99 - with no rebate forms! I directed Santy Claus to pick me up one with the promise that I would act surprised on Christmas.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
